The Lesser Deliberations of the Papal Court
1. Prologue The Pope took his coffee black. It was brought to him promptly by a servant, polished shoes echoing off marble floors, and set beside his gilded throne on a silver tray. Steam caught on a draft wafted an aroma both pleasant and strange to his nose. It was earthy and nutty, with a hint of caramel; distinctly different from the wines and ales he was accustomed to. So Inviting, the Pope thought, though the sentiment was somewhat undercut by the way his servant winced as he placed his fingers on the handle of the ceramic cup.
